Govt vs Private MBBS — Should You Pay ₹14L/Year?

  • Government MBBS (BJ Medical): ₹60K–1.2L/year, Sassoon Hospital 1,800-bed training, NIRF #18 — best possible value but needs NEET state rank < 300
  • AFMC Pune: Completely free but mandatory 7-year Army service after graduation. MBBS + MD possible in Army. Career security + salary from day 1
  • Private/Deemed MBBS (₹14L/yr = ₹70L total): Viable if NEET 450+ and family can afford or take education loan. Doctor career ROI is very high over lifetime
  • Education loan for MBBS: SBI covers up to ₹40L; for ₹70L total cost need additional collateral loan or NRI sponsorship
  • MBBS from Deemed Pune vs Foreign (Ukraine/Russia): Post-COVID, India resumed screening test for foreign MBBS — 40–60% fail. India private MBBS preferred over foreign now
  • After MBBS: NEET-PG for MD/MS specialisation — ranking matters here. BJ Medical MBBS students score better in NEET-PG (better clinical training at Sassoon)
  • AFMC vs BJ Medical: Both government, both excellent. AFMC requires defence commitment + physical fitness. BJ Medical = civil career freedom
